We have our lazy days some of us turn into complete b****** some of us turn into complete Criers and have cravings and pains but there is that 78% of us that have all hormones going off at one time and our bodies. And it's like living with a pregnant chick that isn't pregnant it's just one of our ladies. Just want to know if you think women should have a break are there ladies days.

    That sounds like me. :open_mouth:

    I was a mean guy when I started. Food was my pleasure, but now I view it as "eat to live, not live to eat".. Unless there's sprinkle donuts. Sprinkle donuts and dinosaur chicken nuggets are fair game.

    Lady days can totally screw up your efforts. It does me every time.

    I give myself those days....I figure there are going to be so many more "workout" days in my life to come, I deserve to baby myself if I'm not feeling up to it once a month or so. You only live once, why suffer when you could rest and eat icecream? ;) Only half kidding!

    On it now and worst I ever had. Usually any exercise helps.

    Did crunches and a plank yesterday, literally could not move for ten minutes afterwards.

    Decided maintaining was fine yesterday.

    I'll take the massive cramps today and yesterday's horrors as a message from my body.

    I'll take a break if I wish. I have the other weeks of the month.

    They're not going anywhere.

    Do I think all women should have a free pass at their TOM? No. For 30 years, my period didn't affect me like your examples. Now it's debilitating, so I cut myself a lot of slack. You can't make this generalization to all women, however.

    i have strong opinions about everything.

    most of which can be summed up by ' suck it up buttercup'

    ;)

    however, ive had my crazy pills that i only take on super high anxiety days (and going to the dentist will do that to me). and im a little more relaxed than normal. so youll get a ' hey do what you want, but when you dont lose weight, don't come cryin on here. '

    thats my version of being nice and laid back.

    LOL
